Disinflationary trends persist, with CPI showing a steady decline, despite media drama over slightly higher-than-expected figures; energy stocks remain attractive for long-term investors. Realty Income should consider breaking into smaller REITs for better growth. Protectionist tariffs hurt US manufacturing, and labor shortages loom globally.

The ongoing debate on whether the economy will face a recession or achieve a soft landing continues, with mixed opinions from experts. Despite my longstanding recession prediction, the economic expansion has been extended due to delayed deployment of pandemic-era savings. Tariffs have not benefited American manufacturing, leading to higher input costs, disrupted supply chains, and a slump in manufacturing jobs and output.

Neos Enhanced Income Aggregate Bond Etf

Given the recent market volatility, investors have been flocking to bonds. With the expectation of rate cuts to come and subsequently falling yields, fixed income investors can complement their current core exposure with the NEOS Enhanced Income Aggregate Bond ETF (BNDI).

Complement Your Core Bond Exposure With This Income ETF

In December 2023, I rated BND and AGG as Strong Buys due to economic slowdown and anticipated Fed rate cuts; both ETFs delivered decent returns. I now downgrade BND and AGG to Hold, as the market overreacted to economic data, pricing in more rate cuts than likely. Despite being slightly overpriced, BND and AGG still offer attractive yields (4.16% and 4.22%) for income-focused investors, with minimal downside risk.

Fixed income ETFs continue to gain traction globally. As of August 2024, the asset category managed $2.5 trillion in assets, with iShares managing $1 trillion alone.

August's PMI print lends further supporting evidence to a Federal Reserve interest rate cut later this month. Investors looking to harness opportunities within broad bonds should consider the NEOS Enhanced Income Aggregate Bond ETF (BNDI) for its enhanced tax efficiency and income.

BNDI: Enhanced Bond Tax Efficiency Without Sacrificing Income

Longer-term Treasury and corporate bond rates may have already seen most of their decline, even though Fed Funds rate cuts haven't started. AGG has gained from falling rates in the past year, but capital appreciation could be limited going forward. Monthly dividends also look set to peak in the next year after increasing since 2022.

AGG: Expect Steady Dividends, Minimal Capital Gains Despite Fed Funds Rate Cuts

AGG is diversified and has quality-rated debt, making it a good hedge for equities which are near record highs. Treasuries are offering positive real returns due to inflation's decline, which is in stark contrast to the last couple of years. This ETF is solely focused on US debt, which is offering higher yields than comparable Euro-denominated debt. This suggests relative value.

The anticipation of interest rate cuts have been spurring investors to add bonds before yields subsequently fall. Even so, they can still extract yield while adding core bond exposure with the NEOS Enhanced Income Aggregate Bond ETF (BNDI).
